The monitoring of peer to peer file
sharing: This work was the first to analyse the direct monitoring of illegal file
sharing. Our findings include:

Massive scale monitoring of all of
the most popular illegal downloads from the PirateBay has
been taking place over the last 3 years.

On average an illegal file sharer, using BitTorrent to download
the most popular content, will be connected to and have there IP
address logged within 3 hours of starting a download.

Poor collection methods mean the evidence of illegal file
sharing collected by monitors may not stand up in court.

This work received wide spread media coverage including articles by the
BBC, NBC and New Scientist. This was joint work with Chris Novakovic, Marco Cova and
Camilo Gonzalez Toro, and our report on this work was published at SecureComm 2012.

uses HTML code I originally wrote in the late 90s. Pictures of Birmingham New St. station being rebuild, taken from my apartment, can be found here. I also help run the Finite Number of Monkeys hacking club.
